After the nine-try victory over Aberdeen last week, Ayr look to continue their high-scoring ways with another home game this Saturday. Boroughmuir are welcomed to Millbrae this weekend, and despite their eighth place standing on the RBS Premiership table, head coach Kenny Murray isn't underestimating them.
"Games against Boroughmuir are always tough and they will prove difficult opponents as they look for points," he says. "At the start of the season, we'd have bitten off your hand if you had offered the top spot [on the table] at half way, but it counts for nothing if we don't keep working hard and improving our standards."
Despite the abundance of tries last week, Murray sees room for improvement.
"We were too loose and not focussed enough in the first twenty minutes of that game. These are areas we have addressed during the week and we expect an improvement."
There is one change to the starting line-up with Colin White slotting into the back row in place of James Eddie, who returns to Glasgow Warriors. Graham Fisken takes White's place on the bench. Dean Kelbrick continues his return from injury, with another outing for the 2nd XV.
Team (subject to change on match day):
Grant Anderson, Cammy Taylor, Robbie Fergusson, Richard Dalgleish, Craig Gossman; Finn Russell, Peter Jericevich; Denford Mutamangira, Hayden Wisnewski, George Hunter; Nick Campbell, Scott Sutherland; Colin White, Andrew Dunlop, Calum Forrester (capt).
Replacements: D'arcy Rae, David Young, Ross Doneghan, Graham Fisken, Sylvain Diez.
